Could you add few more tests to exercise the new feature more thoroughly?
Something like tailcall3.c that checks 32 limit, but doing tail_call from subprog.
And another test that consume non-trival amount of stack in each function.
Adding 'volatile char arr[128] = {};' would do the trick.

Yet another prolonged silence from my side, but not without a reason -
this request opened up a Pandora's box.

Great catch and thanks to our development practices! As a community we should
remember this lesson and request selftests more often than not.

+1, speaking of pandora ... ;-) I recently noticed that we also have the legacy
ld_abs/ld_ind instructions. Right now check_ld_abs() gates them by bailing out
if env->subprog_cnt > 1, but that doesn't solve everything given the prog itself
may not have bpf2bpf calls, but it could get tail-called out of a subprog. We
need to reject such cases (& add selftests for it), otherwise this would be a
verifier bypass given they may implicitly exit the program (and then mismatch
the return type that the verifier was expecting).

Best,
Daniel
